Secrets of Mayas (United Freon) WASHINTON, Oct. 23 —— Ono of the most important scientific ex- plorations probably ever under- taken and one which may resurrect a civilization antedating that of ancient Egypt will ibegln soon, in accordance with a contract recent- ly signed between the Mexican Government and the Carnegie In- stitution of Washington. This will be a complete explora- tion into the ancient civilisation flourished in Yucatan. Mexico. The impending exploration ls regarded as of the greatest importance and significance to the scientific world. The group of scientists who will undertake the exploration probably will be headed by Dr. S. G. Morley. Dr. Morley has lived and studied many years in Yucatan and is the possessor of the moot. profund knowledge on the Maya I'll-lu- Ii- i! expected that at least he will be in charge of the archeological phase of tho exploration. Work is now in progress in Yuc- atan to clear away the woods and brush ibiii have sruwu up around the ruins of the Maya. civilization in order ‘to facilitate the investiga- tions of the scientists. A great human aid for the im- pending exploration has been dis- covered in Yucatan-w: Mflyu buy. who is a direct descendant of the last Maya king, according to word received here. it is said that this boy ls able to read, some of the ancient Maya writing and he will be employed to aid the sciontlntn in their efforts to translate these thoughts of the hidden centuries. The world has been able only to guess at the achievements of the Maya civilization. But now the scientific exploration led by the Oni-negio lniitltuiilon, iio b0 minke the imont complete investigation of all phases of the civilization of the Mayan. The great Maya citleo will be in part restored, the liven of the p60- ple will be delved into and the con- ditions under which they flourish- ed will be studied to determine how this mysterious race wan-able to achieve its pron?“- ii-eiinui-es will be saivased. and u!- tor tiin work ban been completed thin ancient roourrocted civilian- tion will be preserved fon posterity.

The first class comprised prizes in previous matches; the second class. those who had not. There were sixteen competitors. and lots were drawn for places. In the first class there were five com- petitors, viz: Francis Henderson. Bedeque; John Ferguson. East Riv- er; John Chandler, pioiighman for the Hon. J. M.

The prize (£4) was won by John Fer- guson "after a very sharp contest with James Moffatt." in the second class there were three prizes and eleven competitors viz: James Laird, New Glasgow, John Robinson.

The first prize in this class was won by James Laird. the second by Alexander Laird Jr, and the third by Alexander Scott. There were in the competition a greater number of ploughmen,_than in any previous match, although the regulations did not admit any person to compete unless he were a subscriber to the Royal Agricul- tural Society. or the servant of n subscriber. it was remarked, at the home. that “when we consider that the small sum of three shillings entitles .a person to membership in this valuable society and enabl- cs him to participate in all the ad- vantages to be derived therefrom, such as the obtaining of seeds, im- proved agricultural implements, etc, at cost and charges. we really do not think it a hardship that this regulation should be strictly en- forced." The Cattle Show, of 1849, was held on the 26th of September-on the market square!
